Just for the record I had 2 8X10 Elwoods both exactly the same but with a big difference.
One had a cast iron hinged upright and the other was cast aluminum. Same exact casting marks, but weight was an issue.
I had only one cast iron base, which is also very heavy. I kept that, but...
I gave away the cast iron upright with the ikonic Cone Head. It is usable when bolted to a suitable baseboard.
I got 3 free Elwood's from one abandoned darkroom in Detroit. The donor found me on this forum and invited me to pick them up.
That's a good reason for the many lurkers to signup and join this forum.
Not the first time I got freebee's from kind souls that hate to see good old gear go to the dump.
